I think for some users who have issues with Twitter (a minority, I&#39;m sure) the problem really comes from what&#39;s at heart a deeply immature impulse: they want a public forum without public accountability. It&#39;s like when people say that you shouldn&#39;t link to someone&#39;s tweets without permission. They&#39;re asking for the fun and self-actualization of speaking in public without the responsibility of public discourse. Which, you know-- and a pony.
